Pruning Trees.

We prune our trees in order to
promote or preserve their beautiful
proportions and adapt them for the
purposes for which we desire them ;
also to rid them of broken or dis
eased branches, or throw their
strength into the production of wood
or fruit, as the case may be desira-
BILE. Cut out the wind-broken or
shivered limbs, shorten those that
are dispropOrtionately long and like
ly to be broken by wind or snow
storms, cut away all branches that
enroach upon road or pathway, and
here and there in young trees thin
out crooked, crossing or superabun-
dant branches. Old trees seldom
need thinning. But be merciful
Don't prune tree unmeaningly +; the
less pruning you can get along with,
the better. In all your operations
use clean, sharp tools and make
clean cuts. Don't leave snags or
butts either in the case of small
twigs or branches, but cut right back
to an eye, fork or stem. If you
don't the snag will die back any
way, become a Disagreement, and
often carry disease to adjacent parts.
The best time for pruning trees
depends on circumstances. In sum-
mer when the trees are in full leaf
we cannot very well see how best
to thin the head and give it the best
symmetrical form, hence we often
shirk that duty till fall. But in cases
where big limbs are to be removed,
summer is to be preferred, as large
wounds made then heal over more
quickly than do those made in winter.
In winter we cannot well distinguish
all the dead branches in our tree
tops, hence that is better attended
TO when the tres is in full leaf. In
summer we don't want to litter up
our gardens by pruning trees, hence
delay it till winter. In winter it is
too cold to be agreeable to spend
much time among the tree tops, and
in spring we are too busy with other
duties to 90 pruning. All points
considered, am inclined to favor
the fall, as the best time, at least
the most convenient for the opera
ton. In hard, frosty weather our

tools are too brittle and we cannot
make clean cuts; and many trees
yellow-wood and naples, for in
stance, bleed severely when pruned
in spring, even as early as Febru-
ary But ] never knew a tree to
.'bleed to death"
Don't prune evergreens in winter.
And don't prune somewhat tender
trees or shrubs of any kind sooner
than just Immediately before spring
sets in. This enables you to see the
extent, if any, of the injury caused
by the severity of the winter, when
you can cut in to living wood.
But we often find among trees
around houses and IN gardens that
the pruning most needed is not the
thinning of the branches but the
thinning of the trees themselves.
If your trees are too thick, cut out
the least desirable ones, and give
the good ones a better chance for
life.-Rurdl Ne1C Yorker.

Glover and Timothy.

Clover and timothy are the main
reliance of most farmers for meadows
and pastures, with the hope that the ma
tural grasses will "come in'' and take
the place of the kinds sown when
they die out, as they often do, in a
few years. Glover scarcely survives
longer than two years, and the tImo-
thy fingers along, gradually disap-
pearing, until in a few years, on light
soils, it is all gone. Where the af-
termath of timothy is not pastured
off, the roots will retain their hold on
the soil longer; but when the crowns
see q whole field killed out in one
winter. In very rich ground clover
may be kept alive for several years,
but it cannot be depended upon
longer than for a second crop. More
| hav NAV be had from the usual seed
ing of clover and timothy than from
any other.-The clover occupies
the land the first year almost exclu-
sively; the following year it becomes
thinner, and the timothy forms
most of the crop each year af-
terward. Then its place is gradually
taken by Red-top, Bluegrass, or the
more common wire grass natural to
all of the Eastern and Middle States.
1t is understood that the large
packing establishments at Chicago
and elsewhere, obtain as high as sew
enty-two per cent of product from
the gross weight of hogs, from good
conditioned animals occasionally
more, and that the yield runs down
to sixty-eight per cent for poor
pork.
Good feeding consists in giving
everything the hogs will eat without
leaving anything or losing their APP
petites. If the animals begin to
flag you will know that it is best to
reduce the amount of grain fed and
increase the amount of lighter food,
such as fruit, vegetable and roots.

pepper tea given to hogs with symp-
toms of cholera, will produce an eff
fectual cure.

Too many men make their BOYS
feel that they are of little or no ac-
count while they are boys. Lay a
responsibility on a boy and he will
meet it in a manful spirit. On no
account ignore their disposition to
investigate. Help them to under
stand things. Encourage them to
know what they are about. We are
too apt to treat n boys seeking after
knowledge as mere idle curiosity.
''DOn't ask questions" is poor adj
vice to boys. If you do not explain
puzzling things to them, you oblige
them to make many experiments be-
fore they find out, and though ex-
perimental knowledge is best. in one
sense, in another it is not, for that
which can be explained clearly, does
not need experimenting with. If
the principle involved is understood,
there is no further trouble, and the
boy can go ahead intelligently.
Do not wait for the boy to grow
up before you begin to treat him as
an equal a proper amount of con-
fidenee, and words OF encouragement
and advice, and giving him to under
stand that you trust him in many
ways. helps to make a man of him
long before he is a man in either
stature or years.-Aeoerican Agri-
cnLturist.

A Popular Cyclopedia.

4 Cyclopedia which presents concise
and readable biographical sketches together
with choice and characteristic selections
from the writings of eminent authors 6f all
ages and all nations, surely ought to be in
great popular demand if its cost were not
prohibitory. Such work is Alden's Cyc.o-
pedia Of Universal Literature, Volume vi.
Of which, now published, contains 479 pag-
es, large type, beautifully printed and
bound, and includes within it the names OF
eighty-two eminent authors, among which
are: Dana, Dante, Darwin, Daudet, Jetfer-
son Davis, Sir Humphrey Davy, Defoe (oi
Robinson 'Crusoe fame), Demosthenes, De-
Quincy, Deseartes, Dickens, Disraeli Dod-
bridge, and Douglas. 1t would seem hard
ly possible to plan any literary work more
eminently readable and interesting if the
compiling and editing were we'll done-and
the nearly universal verdict seems to be
that this is well done indeed. And the
price! Only The Literary Revolution could
have accomplished such wonder SO cents
volume for these beautiful cloth bound
books. or 60 cents for half-Morocco binding!
The publisher offers sample volume to any
one with privilege Of return if not satisfac-
tory. Anyone interested in high class lit
erature ought to send for. Mr. Alden's 81

The Chicago Inter Ocean thus speaks of
the benefit OF judicious advertising: "Busi-
ness men in the thriving young cities Of the
west do not over estimate the benefit of ju-
dieious advertising. Every good advertis-
er in q town is more or less benefactor to
the whole people, 1t is not an unfrequent
occurrence for business men to either come
to the Inter Ocean exchange room or send
for exchanges, for the purpose Of studying
the life and enterprise Of the various marts
of trade, WHICH they judge by The advertis-
ing columns Of the local press. 1t is just
such enterprising business men who have
builtup Chicago, and they will benefit a
community wherever found. What we
mean by judicious advertising is not to
blow or bluster, but facts, which save buy
ers both time and money. In these days a
city without advertisers is dead, no matter
what its wealth and resources may be-:
The wife Of one of our enterprising citi-
zens--ofcourse he advertises in the Pro-
NEER-said to us the other day, that "doing
business thout advertising is like wink
ing at girl in the dark" Cute isn't it?
and true too.
